Martinsville City Public Schools

Did you know that, in Virginia, high school students are required to be trained in CPR, AED, and emergency first aid in order to graduate? That's why we were delighted to receive an amazing donation last week from the American Heart Association - Virginia and Sovah Health - Martinsville! These American Heart Association CPR in Schools & First Aid kits are already in place at Martinsville High School, ready to help the next class of students learn these important, life-saving techniques!
